Comment from Hayley Solomon
Completely and utterly brilliant.
I started reading this in the hope that I could return the favour and find a typo for you ( thanks for your reading of the transitions chapter of Wishbinder, a manuscript I wrote ages ago when my kids were tots and watched me with eager eyes as I read the latest instalments. )Alas, I cannot. You are way to good for me and your humour is such a good match of mine that I can only laugh. Well done on an excellent 'page two' (but we won't call it that) and there is no suggestion I can make.
Warm wishes,
Hayley (who is now off to correct typo)

You are so kind to want to help me. I got lucky this time, but I'm sure there will be many opportunities in the future.
I love your comment about our humor matching. There's nothing I enjoy more than making people laugh.
Six stars is hard to believe. Thank you for everything, especially the high rating.
I like your using the word 'Alas.' I used it in a short story and my own son criticized me for it.
Take care.

Hi Marv. Your new format seems clearer and easier to read...more concise while still keeping the humor you've always shown in your writing. Chapter length for me is just right. Marilyn

Thanks for reviewing this chapter and the high rating.
The new format is the result of my discovering Advanced Editor. Thanks for telling me how it comes across to you.
Thanks for the compliment about the humor.
I like submitting chapters of this length for review. Several of this length could easily be combined for the forthcoming book.
Thank you for hanging in there.

I usually don't read book chapters, but this was interesting and I'm glad you approached the topic of to outline or not. "Planners and Pantsers", I heard one ghost writer say one time. Well, I will have to say the story was interesting also and I would recommend this . Thanks, thonnigford09

Thank you very much for making an exception in my case to read a book chapter. Glad you liked my bringing up the topic of, 'to outline or not.'
Thanks for introducing me to the phrase, "Planners and Pantsers."
Thank you very much for the 6 stars.

Interesting chapter. It seems to be more than a 1st person POV, but a breaking of the 5th wall.
notes:
I have friends here, [girl friends] and contacts in the biz.
